Default Show Me YouR Oil Caps!

What's the one thing you hate about aftermarket oil caps?

It's so friggin hard to open them because most have no handle!!

I found a cool solution.. The ARC Oil Cap Tool!


Only works with an ARC oil cap


Tada!


I have every color going on in my engine bay now lol


Here's what the oil cap looks like with the hood closed


here's what it looks like to do the robot in a car

Looking hot Leemik (Mike)! Great to see you back on the boards! I've always loved your car! I guess I'll post my oil cap too...



We've got good taste huh... ?! BTW, was that key like $50 or something?

Take care

I know this is off topic, but have you had any problems with the MAF being infront of the BOV?

X2 probably runs rich when it blows off......Shooting flames when WOT shifting FTW!


Your car looks good why did you get banned?

supra crazy is right.. it shoots flames every once in a blue moon on a shift but otherwise I notice no other ill effects from having BOV after MAF..

The only vendor that seems to carry the tool is aspecproducts.com (I think Logan@aspec is on here) *BUT* i noticed that they recently removed it from their catalog.. so I really don't know where to get it now.. perhaps Mackin can help?
